@Brig_Lewdholm //I feel like it does have it's place in Overwatch, but the issue is not being able to do literally anything about it. It'll make it so it's harder to stagger someone, and not the easiest thing in the world, y'know?

@BlizzardCS I've had a problem on Xbox where i cant launch Overwatch and it gives me an error for validating the game i bought. I went through all the possible solutions and i eventually tried uninstalling and reinstalling. It's now no longer in my games list and i am unable to install it

Hey nice experimental today @overwatch! Really addressed core issues of dvas call mech dmg needing a buff. Oh wait... No, it was actually a terrible expr. Hitscan is beyond unfun and overpowered for literally years now. It baffles me, the balancing in this game 🧠🧠🧠

So last night after talking on Tuesday with some lovely folks about Overwatch I decided to get myself back up to speed on it. Well first there are A LOT of new characters since I last played. And second, the lag for me just in just the practice room was HORRIFYING.

@CSGO @CBCS Fix Overwatch and VAC. 7/10 of my last matches had spinbotters and I have a good trust factor.

@BlizzardCS Played overwatch a few mins ago. Everything was perfectly fine. The server "lost connection" for no apparent reason, and I'm stuck with a 7 hour suspension. Is there anything you guys can do to fix it? My Internet has been checked multiple times, comes out stable without no prob.

We had a serious glitch happen on twitch today where my obs randomly just stopped streaming completely and left me no options on how to fix it other then to close and restart the whole window WHILE IM IN AN OVERWATCH COMPETITIVE MATCH it was a nightmare 😩

Alright, so Overwatch system in @CSGO is broken and even dead. I decrypt my overwatch cases and I know who is the cheater behind the case, and It's sad to know that x7 Spinbotters I reported for Cheating are still not banned from last 6 days. #CSGO

@BlizzardCS Hey! Are you guys having any issues with Overwatch game servers? The connection to one was lost for me and I ended up getting a 7 hour suspension for it. My internet is perfectly stable and all that, everything's been checked surrounding that. Know anything?

@BlizzardCS Are Overwatch servers having problems right now? There's a huge spike in ping and I just had a whole Competitive match cancelled because of it disconnecting everyone.

@jeffgerstmann Had the same issue with Overwatch not launching for a week. Turns out it was Razer Synapse as well.

@PaulTassi Felt they tried 2 do this @ the start of D2 (Overwatch was huge then) & it was never a good fit for dual balancing. Crucible & its 4v4 (mostly) tight circular maps & mysterious player stats/matchmaking hasn’t felt right since. Shoving 6v6 into those maps didn’t fix it either.

@CSGO Better fix VacNet and Overwatch, there is a spinbotter in every second game I’ve played the last week..

(@pelipurkki) reported
@JerseyFinFan @Victouffe @CSGO Every single overwatch i view is aimbot. Cheating is true problem in this game and only the most obvious cheaters get overwatched. Vac catches only fraction of cheaters and that happens 2-4 months, even year later. No sympathy for cheaters.

@TheMacroShow Spectrum is *** like for real it literally has a daily disconnect like if I play overwatch there's a chance I could lose 50sr or of I play apex I can just dc mid fight or any other online game even just talking to friends I have to reset the party after being kicked

@reapzlbbh Gameplay wise no. Overwatch clearly has a working formula and more content and new ways to play it the better. Unless it's broken as ****. But I feel overwatch 2 story is gonna disappoint a lot of people because how all over the place people expectations are. I hope I'm wrong

My main problem with overwatch is that there’s hot people I think every team shooter should follow the tf2 model where it’s just a bunch of ugly middle aged men killing each other over gravel
